I have to say that this video is very distasteful. <br />I find it ironic that the same people who say that we should respect those of religions such as Islam and Judaism, have no problem bashing Christianity. <br />I agree that George W. does not represent a true dipiction of what Jesus taught as Christianity, but it would be nice if it could be said without insulting the rest of us, thank you.

Well d'uh - why on earth did you watch it? <br /> <br />I guess I should have put red flags all over and an 'advisory' or something, but I DID say it was probably inapropriate AND, come on, did you not read the title? What were you expecting? <br /> <br />It's <b>satire</b> and intended to be a joke. <br /> <br />And I'm not sure who you're talking about because I'm pretty sure I never said, "we should respect those religions such as Islam and Judeaism"... Don't go putting words in my mouth. I am a Christian so be careful who you call 'the rest of us', that's very divisive and makes assumptions about me and others that are arrogant really. <br /> <br />Show me something like this about Islam and I'll post it. I have one about Judaism if anyone would like me to post that in the name of... what, <i>fairness</i>? <br /> <br />Get a grip. You see, THIS is why Christianity is losing people in droves, you guys (and by that I mean you and Falwell and the vocally righteous) have no sense of humour and NO ability to be self-depricating... <br /> <br />If I had to guess, I'd bet Jesus is laughing. <i>My</i> god, if nothing else, has a sense of humour. <br /> <br />Muslims and others are submitted to racial profiling and the theft of their civil liberties and you get your knickers in a twist over this? <br /> <br /> <img align=absmiddle src='images/smilies/rolleyes.gif' alt='Rolling Eyes'> <br /> <br />I can't believe I even bothered to reply to this but your 'holier than thou' attitude irks me. <br /> <br />**gets in "go to hell" line** <br /> <br />

I apologize for coming off as "holier than thou" as you put it. I agree this is a problem in the Christian community. <br />In fact I admit my comment was mostly inappropriate, despite still not thinking the video was all that funny. I was not really thinking too clearly when I made my post, and I shouldn't have made it. <br />And yes, I can enjoy irreverant humour, I think South Park's "Christmas in Hell" song (sung by satan in the show) is hilarious.

<br /> <br />thanks for that herminator... <br /> <br />very classy <br /> <br />We've all been guilty of the premature ejaculation of something less than savory into cyberspace. <br /> <br />Peace

"I thought it was pretty lame." <br /> <br />Well, so did I. Sometimes lame can be funny though, and now I can't get the annoying, cursed song out of my head. <br /> <br />
